"Two addicts are forced on stage in front of a judgemental audience, they have to face their demons in the form of the black dog puppet Master of Ceremonies. They will sing and dance for your entertainment but the only way they can leave this other-worldly hell is by facing themselves...."
The show explores the roots of addiction, it's consequences and impacts and asks what really is addiction and why do we do it?

Storytelling Workshop for addicts: exploring the connection between addiction and creativity. 
​"We believe that storytelling can access deep unknown strengths that can be brought to surface through exploring one’s life  story as creative material. It is fundamentally important to be able to re-tell our narratives in order to live with a more honest, useful and life affirming story of our struggles and our future dreams. "
